Awesome tutorial! I started by writing that I'd buy any course you made, but I'm coming back to change my comment because I see that you did make a course on the other site you mentioned. I'm definitely going to check it out! 🌷
I've been watching youtube videos for a year now to learn how to paint and I've never seen anything about grayscales. I was blocked because when I try to color I don't know what colors to use and everything looks like a little kid painted it and I think that following your advice I will finally be able to move forward. Thank you so much for all the content you share, I find it tremendously useful and it is super relaxing to watch you paint. 🥰
For those who have software that doesn't work well with adding color to grayscale and makes your work 1000x harder, I'd recommend using a monochromatic scale of, say blues. Just never go fully white or fully black, but very close. You can easily adjust darks ot black or lights to whites later if needed. I will often keep a tab with the scale I'm in, so I can pick the colors if the color wheel decides to reset.
this video was beyond helpful, I was having a hard time finding a videos that explained this in a well way and this was so well done, thankyou for helping us!
I really enjoy your art style and have been trying to adopt something like that. I would love to see a video where you talk about the shading techniques that you use. Thanks for you videos! God bless:-)
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEOOOO T^T I swear I was getting frustrated about how I worry all the time about what palettes match or not, when I simply just forgot about values, I'll apply this on my future artworks, you taught me better how to make art
This is what I always lacked, I always did black and white and despised my work after adding color because the last thing I did was add depth and light and it just never worked well and I felt like a little kid. I now know greyscale is what has always been missing. Thank you for this and sharing. Like others mentioned, no one ever talks about this. They give you steps that can be understood but when it comes down to incorporating them you are overwhelmed and don’t know what to do first or get stuck midway through because it’s just not turning out how you pictured it. I sketched out a scene I’ve wanted to do for so long, but when it came down to adding texture, light, depth, I honestly got overwhelmed because it’s no simple piece with multiple focus points, from a upward pov of a cottage in a forest to a path that follows down to a beach, and ocean and the distant mountains, and now I know where to go from there. So thank you
I was struggling with coloring my art and I didn’t know what specifics to search for or where to start. This helped me a bunch, and now my coloring looks so much better! Thank you so much :D
This is the best explaining grayscale tutorial for composing environment ❤️ can't thank you enough for the amount of valuable information you provided. Wish you all the best❤
Thank you for all the information you put through this videos. I've been searching a lot about this subject as I'm self taught, and you couldn't have explained it any better
This is so great! I haven’t really learned about gray scale but I’m having trouble knowing how to paint light in Procreate on some of my pieces. Would love to see another video like this but maybe one that isn’t a time-lapse but one where it’s more real time so that you could slow down. I love the brushes you’re using and how you use few brushes to create your scenes! Loved this though! So helpful. I want to give it a try.
One thing to note is that the color layer that you are setting to black isn't 100% accurate when converting things to greyscale. There is a setting on your ipad that you can toggle to black and white that will give you the accurate values. Typically there will be less contrast in your values when you use that blending mode than the accurate greyscale mode. Hope this helps!
I'm currently struggling with drawing a forest background for an illustration. Sometimes it's really hard to pick fitting colours, especially when drawing backgrounds and not characters. I remembered seeing some tips about values and came across this video, it explained it so well, I'll go try it out!
Oh my god, thank you very much for this video, it has clarified almost all my doubts regarding this topic, I am just a beginner in digital drawing and this video is so well explained. I just have a doubt. When I have the 4 values for my drawing, do I have to paint everything with those four values? That is to say that I only have those 4 values to make lights and shadows? (I would be very grateful if someone could answer this question for me)
Thank you so much for this video! It's very informaive and just what i was looking for! The way you explained everything was very clear and i feel iike i have a better idea on where to start.
Wow, thank you so much, this is the best video on the subject! Since yesterday I've watched about 20 of them but I was still stuck on how to use the different grey values and now with the 3-4 values exercise I think I'll be able to get unstuck.
Thank you 🤯, you are so talented you make me feel bad for my drawing. And you right, starting with colors is a bad idea, i should've discovered this earlier. 👍
this was amazing!! thank you so much, this taught me a lot! I do have a question: what is the local value? is it the base? Is it the color most present in the object or material? how do I use it? If someone has an answer or a video about that, pls tell me ❤
I had been hunting for a video like this, and I’m ready to test this in CSP! Tbh I already learned this crap in school, but this basically taught me half a semester’s content in 15 minutes 😂
I have a suggestion for your next video How to compare human to landscape around (i mean how to know does that human size look appropiate to the landscape, house, ground, car around) thanks
Amazing tutorial! I do have a question though, which brush do you use to put down the main shapes in the very first stage of drawing your landscape? 😊🥰
Hello, i just found your channel and i am very amazed by your process. I’m learning a lot and I am inspired. Can you do a real-time tutorial of a simpler subject or composition, example ‘faces’ or ‘animals’, starting the process with values and then colors? ❤❤❤ maybe a ‘follow along’ style tutorial :)
Hi, Arianna! I was wondering how to grayscale and color my concept art, and your video just saved me! Thanks a lot! Your video has everything beginners need. By the way, I would like to know what brush you use on this line drawing @5:53. Would you mind to tell me the name of the brush? It would be a big help for me! Thanks:) Have a wonderful day, amazing artist!

You are amazing thank you so much for being a "cool gray teacher" ⚫
This was incredibly helpful. I don't see many videos that actually teach you about greyscale and how to start out. Thanks for this!!!
Glad this helped!
